About This Quote

Opening a book lets you enter another world. You can travel through the pages of books, too, so it’s not just stories that open for you. Books can be portals to other places where you can go and learn about new things, see the world in a new way, or even meet people who are different from you. All of us have the ability to transform the world around us with words.

Unless it is done with knowledge or wisdom, writing can have no real value or purpose except for entertainment. However, words have the power to change people's lives forever. Books are just as powerful as doors because they let us open up to another place inside us and let the world come through and begin to change our lives.
